A retro hot spring town that flourished during the bubble era

During the bubble period, Kinugawa Onsen attracted approximately 3.4 million tourists a year. As the bubble burst, the once prosperous hot spring inns fell into financial difficulties one after another. Today, many of the hotels remain in ruins, which is a problem😭 However, there are still many hot spring inns in operation, and they play an important role in Nikko tourism😄 #Retro townscape #Breaking views
